8values political stance quiz
Let's all take this semi-short quiz and share the results!
https://8values.github.io/
Personally, I was surprised at how many questions made me uncomfortably unsure about my stance which is probably indicating I need to get better informed.
And was surprised to get a liberal result when it's been a long time since I identified as one or even wanted to be associated with such.
Will be interesting to take this test again in a few months as I listen to quite a lot of political podcasts lately.

Re: 8values political stance quiz
Pretty much as expected I guess, except that like 8-ball I don't exactly identify with so called liberal parties. Their idea of liberty tends to be at the expense of other people and without contributing to the greater good.

Re: 8values political stance quiz
I don't know, very hard to interpret a lot of these questions and wanted to have some clarification and context. Ended up just picking "unsure" about at least 10-15 of them. I guess nothing too unexpected for my either

Re: 8values political stance quiz
Should it really be a goal to have a "strong opinion" on every topic? I feel like with most issues you could find plenty of positives and negatives for anything depending on the situation and understand both sides of the argument. I'm not convinced that it's important to be sure about everything.8-ball wrote:Personally, I was surprised at how many questions made me uncomfortably unsure about my stance which is probably indicating I need to get better informed.
Re: 8values political stance quiz
Note that there's a difference between "unsure" and "neutral", both of which are under the same option. I think 8-ball referred to "unsure" (he said it :p), rather than neutral, hence the desire to deepen teh knowledge. I was unsure/dunno about a few (5?), and neutral on several more. Tbh I feel like I should read about every one of these issues for 15min before answering :U I thought and read about prostitution afterwards and changed my opinion almost entirely

Re: 8values political stance quiz
Just goed very quickly through it. Pretty close to expected, but yeah many too vague questions that can be interpreted in different ways.
Re: 8values political stance quiz
pawq: ah, ok. Yeah, I didn't even understand some questions.

And imo Tradition/Progress isn't really a scale. You can be traditional and progressive at the same time.

I'm amazed anyone was able to go through all those questions. I stopped at 15/70

Re: 8values political stance quiz
I understand that most people are Internationalist, Libertarian and Progressive.
But why are most kuskis leaned more towards social system than market system?

Re: 8values political stance quiz
Main reason probably because most live in somewhat socialist/social-democratic countries and are influenced by that.Tigro wrote:But why are most kuskis leaned more towards social system than market system?
Re: 8values political stance quiz
Would have to agree with SveinR's assessment. You like what you are used to a lot of the time.
Re: 8values political stance quiz
I live in such social state and I think it's shit. Not that my single opinion totally breaks the rule; just sayin.
Re: 8values political stance quiz
I think the scale is quite uncomparable between Slovakia and Norway :p

"Global strive for equality" does not necessarily mean higher quality of life, which was discussed. Everyone is acting like if women were treated like shit 100 years ago. European culture was always women & children first. The change happened mainly because nowadays most jobs do not require physical strength. The ones that did were naturally considered men's jobs and the remaining ones women's.pawq wrote: You think the global strive for equality is solely thanks to science?

If by that you mean first to be raped, beaten and married away for profit then yes, you are correct.

Re: 8values political stance quiz
I think a better wording is that women were treated like property. Many men took good care of their property, that's true.
Re: 8values political stance quiz
Women were there to take care of the homes and the children, not much else...
I didn't mention equality without a reason mila. It gives people fair chances to be treated justly, to achieve education and success with hard work, and to have a voice about the society and its rules. All of these increase decade by decade, and I think saying it's just due to science is a bit audacious. Naturally all these things are interrelated, and I'd be curious to hear from somebody who deals with civilisation development professionally, but I think there's more to humanity than science (saying this as a junior scientist).

Re: 8values political stance quiz
For one, women often had little to say about who they were wed to, and I know that from my own family a few generations back. I think I don't even have to mention education, or the lack of access to education for women until not so long ago, which obviously and naturally prevented them from gaining significant importance.
"Property" is naturally a bit of a stretch, but there is a lot of truth in that.

The limiting factor 100 years ago was money, so parent could send only one or a few children to school, and they typically chose boys. There wasn't any discrimination on the school side.pawq wrote: I think I don't even have to mention education, or the lack of access to education for women until not so long ago, which obviously and naturally prevented them from gaining significant importance.
Women were not equal 100 years ago, but property is a bit stretch.pawq wrote:"Property" is naturally a bit of a stretch, but there is a lot of truth in that.
Anyway, the "equality" in the test is not the equality of opportunities, which almost everybody supports, but it is about the equality of outcome (equity). That's what I am against.
In all the fields, were women underperform, there are steps taken, to make their outcome equal. But when the sexes are switched, nobody gives a shit.

Re: 8values political stance quiz
if you make comparisons between countries it becomes quite clear that some form of socialism is beneficial and i dont think anyone in here is advocating for communism. nordic countries for example are mostly capitalist with socialized healthcare and welfare elements etc. these countries have low crime and are on top of polls when it comes to happiness and overall the quality of life is good. granted it sucks if you are rich and make one million instead of two, my heart weeps for you!
Re: 8values political stance quiz
I've never said that. I'm against positive discrimination (affirmative action) - biasing the rules such that there will be equal distribution of genders or races for each job.Ruben wrote: You are against women getting paid the same as men for doing the exact same jobs exactly as efficiently?

Re: 8values political stance quiz
so do you think if welfare was taken out, Finland would go into anarchy? I think people would stay the same and just get out of their homes and do some work for a change. I think it's more about human programming, genes and tradition. Kindness, honesty and bad self esteem are in the core of Finnish people, learned as a child from parents.Vermin Supreme wrote: nordic countries for example are mostly capitalist with socialized healthcare and welfare elements etc. these countries have low crime and are on top of polls when it comes to happiness and overall the quality of life is good.
Meanwhile in some other country people would start rioting if welfare was taken out.
The reason why nordic mans do better is in somewhere else than government structure.
Re: 8values political stance quiz
wouldnt be anarchy but im 100% sure crime would increase by significant margin
Re: 8values political stance quiz
I'm inclined to believe that the government structure somewhat grows out of the population, so if the population has certain tendencies, the government will reflect that.
But it's very interesting for me that all 5 nordic countries (Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland) are in top10 of world's most developed countries (http://www.oecdbetterlifeindex.org)
